    Best video on youtube on tuning the rb25det.

    • @somenutjob

      Yes just keep in mind there are far better options for turbo, exhaust, fuel system and ECU now, than what was available when the video was made

    Dyno dynamics wheel dynos don't correct for tranmission loss so the figures are around 30% lower than at the flywheel

    just picked up my GTT last week, good base line information and modification info.

    • @somenutjob
      @somenutjob 10 лет назад +1

      Keep in mind a lot of this is outdated. You can make power much cheaper and easier nowadays. I've got a 320rwkw R33 that cost me less than 10k including purchase so if you need some advice i may be able to help

    • @Infinity238
      @Infinity238 10 лет назад

      somenutjob I've already got a lot sorted, Greddy boost controller, Blitz Nur spec exaust, rb25 steel ball bearing turbo, FMIC kit, Blitz Cold air intake, and some nismo s-tune coils. Next looking to some bigger injectors and some sort of a tune-able ecu (nistune or something similar) . Keeping it relatively tame for my daily driver.

    • @somenutjob
      @somenutjob 10 лет назад

      nice one don't forget a fuel pump. If you're in sydney I know someone that can hook you up with a nistune ECU and install + tune for cheap

    • @Infinity238
      @Infinity238 10 лет назад

      if only, I'm from canada and there isnt really a local shop that I know of that specializes in nistune.

  • @MicrosoftPowerBoost
    @MicrosoftPowerBoost 10 лет назад

    Great video! I learned a couple things =) A question: It is normal to get 158kw on a stock R34? I tough they were around 220 kw (or 300 hp).

    • @peterwilliams1950
      @peterwilliams1950 10 лет назад +1

      158 was the power put down at the rear wheels (rwkw). Factory figures are rated at the flywheel

    • @stinger15au
      @stinger15au 8 лет назад +1

      +PaulRonald its showing wheel kw, factor in driveline loss & dd dyno's usually read 10% lower than their american counterparts and it sounds dead right for a stock r34 gtt.

    • @VideosbyBenEllis
      @VideosbyBenEllis  10 лет назад +7

      As the description says, it was done from 2002-2004. Running 98 octane fuel you still need to do much the same mods as we did back then.

    Does anyone know how many PS or BHP the exhaust system would give? it's a ~7% increase in KW so would it be the same %? I.E from 280PS/276BHP stock to 298PS/294BHP?

    • @VideosbyBenEllis

      Yes, assuming the engine was making exactly 280ps/276hp in the first place
